PAINTING INFORMATIONThe Robert Bailey painting, “Eight Minutes to Midnight” was commissioned for the Paratroopers movie and represents the first time that the world famous aviation artist has painted from the jumpers perspective inside an airplane, just before their historic jump. You can own this incredible piece of Airborne history signed by our own Airborne veterans that jumped and fought in Normandy on D-Day. The first 4 sets of limited edition prints have been signed by select remaining members of the original First Canadian Parachute Battalion and are available for sale now. This is the only painting to commemorate the Canadian paratroopers night drop into Normandy during the D-Day invasion of June 6, 1944 so it is a must have for any military supporter or collector. The fact that it will be signed by our original paratroopers is sure to make it a premium collectable that will be in demand for years to come. Quantities are very limited and will sell out fast, so please order yours today to avoid disappointment.

A WORD FROM ROBERT BAILEY

“I am proud to be a part of this noble endeavour and trust that my commissioned art paintings of the D-Day drop into Normandy will help to honour the memory of our veteran paratroopers past, present and future. As an aviation artist, I am passionate about this subject and feel that a documentary of this nature can only stand to enhance the understanding of who and what Paratroopers are, and how valiantly they have fought for our country and for our freedoms. I am confident that the filmmakers Christie and Dickson have the best of intentions and have laid out what appears to be a solid and credible plan to bring this all to fruition.”

Warmest Regards, Robert Bailey. (www.BaileyPrints.com)
